Re: brake swap question
Not directly but it can be done.
The brakes are the same but the backing plates are different, and you can't put a 9 bolt disc backing plate directly on a 10 bolt drum axle tube flange.

Re: brake swap question
is there some parts you can buy to swap from 9 to 10 bolt and keep your PBR setup on the 10 bolt?
